It may look like a nervous exit from the 1st half, but I'm not happy with it not touching the trend line and with the late entry (now 19:30 BST)

I'll keep lowering stop whenever I can

PS The trend line is just about 73 and that's the day's high (a bit above)

I've made a mistake with the stake size as well - it was too big. Ideally I should have exited 1/2 at this point and put the stop above the trend line - poor trade management

I'll leave it till tomorrow - if it comes back to TL and rejects it I'll enter again with smaller distance to the stop if available and smaller stake

Short USDCHF .9372
stop .9393
target .9335

I'll leave this trade on overnight.

1h Chart shown.
Price has been in an upward channel since last week. Recently as shown it was unable to make a higher high twice. The stop is just above this week's high and target is the lower channel line.

Some monks seek to become one with another weapon entirely—the bow. The zen archer takes a weapon most other monks eschew and seeks perfection in the pull of a taut bowstring, the flex of a bow’s limbs, and the flight of an arrow fired true.
I have no doubt that he has plenty of ladys running after him on his love pad in the harbour

Nice trading again ZEN

That's kind of you BP
I would say that the analysis was good and trading can be better - still seeking that elusive perfection:whistling

Whatever the case - the price is near the triangle target and the pattern worked ok. Now I have to sit and wait patiently for further 100 SMA and trend line rejections bearing in mind that more rejections equals weaker signals.

Intraday PA is still rubbish and doesn't make difference if it's London session or any other time (some moves are even better outside Lon session). When trading short time set ups, I would try to be very choosy till PA improves (one nice day)
